This week saw the death of Club Penguin Island, an HTML and for a short period of time only mobile successor to Club Penguin. However, these past few weeks also saw the eradication of Club Penguin as on 20 November 2018, the app was removed from the app store (both Apple and Google Play) but this week, especially Thursday, saw the nearly-complete eradication of the franchise's social media presence.
The first thing I noticed was that their Twitter account became private:
They have also unfollowed everyone they were following and their Instagram has also gone private. The website also currently being taken down and any links to the Club Penguin website now redirect to Disney's website. Their videos on YouTube (as in videos on the OFFICAL CLUB PENGUIN YOUTUBE CHANNEL) have been deleted and many fans on Twitter have announced their intention to archive the channels and re-upload the videos. It's unclear if the channels (what remains of them) will be deleted along with the privatised social media accounts but if some noticeable change happens, I will this post or do a sequel post with the tag Club Penguin.
